[How-To] Install Ralink RT3290 Wireless Drivers

[spc_hicks09]

After much trial and error, here is the final How-To.

First let me explain, this is a mash-up of various posts all mixed into one. I've done this plenty of times myself and can say that it will always work.

I've always had the issue of installing Ubuntu 12.04 and not having wireless when I boot up. This solves that issue but ONLY for the Ralink RT3290 Chip and ONLY on Ubuntu 12.04. This will NOT work on 12.10 unless you downgrade the kernel.

Prereq's

Internet Connection. (If you have an Android phone, download a USB Tether app for internet, otherwise you need to use Ethernet)
Ubuntu 12.04 installed

First thing you're going to want to do is update and get the Linux Headers, for this you will open Terminal and type the following:


sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic

After that is complete, cd to your home directory if you're not already there:


cd ~

Now you're going to want to download the Ralink RT3290STA Driver


wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11876059/DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508.tar.gz

Now extract the tar:


tar -xvf DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508.tar.gz

Open "DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508/os/linux/config.mk"

Find the following lines and make sure they look like this:


HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y

HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y

Now back in Terminal, cd into the extracted driver folder:


cd ~/DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508

Now the following commands in order:


sudo su

make

make install

After that finishes, activate the wireless driver:


sudo modprobe rt3290sta

Your wifi should pop right up, but it will not survive a reboot yet.....

Now let's make sure it will activate on boot, for this we will be editing the "modules" file:


sudo gedit /etc/modules

Copy/paste these lines at the very bottom:


rt3290
rt3290sta

Save the file and exit

Now you need to blacklist the default driver so that it doesn't override the rt3290sta driver:


sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

Scroll down the bottom of that file and add these lines at the bottom:


#Wireless drivers conflicting with rt3562sta
blacklist rt2800pci
blacklist rt2x00pci

Save and exit

Now update your changes:


sudo update-initramfs -u

Now exit the terminal and reboot

Upon reboot you should have working wifi that will survive every reboot. Hope this helps everyone, it took me about 2 days to figure all this out.

Alternatively, this can be done on 12.10 now if you update your kernel to any 3.7 kernel first. Then follow all instructions. Wifi drivers will survive a reboot every single time :)

You have no idea how frustrating this has been for me. I just bought my computer last week and removed win 8 for Ubuntu but couldn't get the wireless working. Every site I've visited, all of the info I got and tried and tried with no results. But spc_hicks09 you are great. I followed your advice exactly and it worked like a charm. THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH !!!! I am a happy camper...........................

[zeflasher]

I have registered just to THANK YOU!!!

I have been looking for a solution for days then gave up (got many kernel panic).
Anyways your instructions worked and I am so happy to tell you that after a reboot I am now wrtting you using my wireless!!!

AWESOME!!!

Just for google.

Glad I could help you both! It took me a very long time to figure out how to get this all to work. I ended up having to mash together about 3 or 4 different methods to find one that worked perfectly. Enjoy Ubuntu :)

Hi,

I am interested if it was necessary to copy the firmware:


sudo cp DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508/common/rt3290.bin /lib/firmware
I prepared an installation archive here:

http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/post/5561332/

[ryanlitton]

I tried this method on my HP envy dv6-7245us running Ubuntu 12.04 with the 3.5.0-30-generic kernel. Ubuntu is able to connect to my wifi network with no problem, but when I open firefox and try to load web pages, the system freezes. The keyboard and mouse become unresponsive, and the screen freezes completely. The only thing I can do is force shut down by holding the power button. I'm assuming it is a kernel panic, because the caps lock light blinks sometimes when it freezes. I followed these instructions carefully, yet I still get a kernel panic. I'm running a generic kernel now, but the kernel that was installed with Ubuntu was the amd64 kernel since I have an AMD cpu. Might that have something to do with the panic/unresponsiveness?

[EnYao]

I just registered to the forum to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'd been searching around for the past 2 days, after seeing so many methods that caused side issue. This is an excellent guide and good job.

Though I would like to add that, for the very first step (sudo apt-get update && .....), there's error during installation and required root user. So I decided to switch to root user (sudo su) and do apt-get update && .... all over again and it worked thereafter.

I'm wondering why Ubuntu (or Canonical) certified (http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201206-11167/) the HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14, and yet Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS doesn't worked out of the box.

[ryanlitton]

I have tried this on three different kernels in 12.04 (3.5.0-30, 3.5.0-31, and 3.8.0-x). Each time I install the module following all of these steps. Each time I get a kernel panic and unresponsive system.

I'm using the rt3290sta driver (proprietary) from the mediatek site. Perhaps there is an open -source solution or some thing out there that will work better for my HP envy dv6-7245us (besides Ethernet)? I don't want to keep my laptop tethered to my phone indefinitely, and besides, easytether is not perfect.

Hi friends,

please check this installation package with dkms:

[matej12]

Hi.

I bought HP probook 4540s, installed ubuntu 12.04 and experienced the problem with wireless. I did everything described in How-To at the begining of this thread. That seemed to solve the problem, the wireless was working for an hour or so max. then ubuntu crashes and I was stucked with this screen:

http://shrani.si/?2t/MB/4o4QfPQd/dsc0863.jpg

If I use the cable everything works fine but if I switch to wireless sooner or later system crashes. Help please.

Matej

[praseodym]

Please reboot, connect via cable and check the VGA card:


lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 VGA
lsmod
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[matej12]

I did as you said and thats what I get:

So I get to this line...


Open "DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508/os/linux/config.mk"
Find the following lines and make sure they look like this:
Code:

HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y

HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y



No "HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y" exists in my file :shock:(the other one does, I used the search function)... I have not proceeded any further as I don't want to mess anyhing up. Any suggestions?

[praseodym]

The dkms installation already contains these changes. Did you try it?

[thezman007]

The dkms installation already contains these changes. Did you try it?

I just did with no luck... It was a little difficult as I am not German and the filenames do not match exactly (I had issues using 'tar' for a minute there). When I reboot the menu bar tells me ra0 wireless says 'device not ready'...now what? :)

[praseodym]

Check now:

lsmod
rfkill list
sudo iwlist scan

Does this help? :P

[praseodym]

The driver is loaded. Do you use an USB-stick with Zydas chipset (module zd1211rw)?


sudo modprobe -rfv zd1211rw
sudo modprobe -rfv rt3290sta
sudo modprobe -v rt3290sta
Check:


iwconfig
dmesg | grep rt3
sudo iwlist scan

[thezman007]

Yeah, I am using that to get on the web, but I removed it when I rebooted...let me try those codes

[thezman007]

Here is what I get:

Also, I will need to find out how to make my USB Wifi work again LOL, now I have to use wires to get online :)

[praseodym]

ra0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down

Any button, switch, key or key combination? Check your BIOS settings (on/off/last state), and if it helps to boot the networking first, then the OS

[thezman007]

There is a button, but pushing it doesn't do anything. It's the F12 button. I have tried it with the 'fn' button as well. BIOS is very limited since it was expected to use the UEFI boot up I believe. I will try and enable the UEFI and get back to you :)

[thezman007]

Ok pressing and <i>holding</i> the wireless button turns off the wireless network and the menu bar says 'wireless is disabled by hardware switch'...then of course I can turn it back on and I get the same 'device not ready.' BIOS doesn't give me any network options that I can see...Not sure what to do now :)

[praseodym]

Try to press the button during boot-up either permanently or repeatedly.

[thezman007]

Either way it just tries to Network Boot, something about PXE 2.1 or whatever. I'm gonna be away from my comp for a while. Perhaps I need to start from a clean slate? Can I add the line needed to config.mk? Are there different drivers to use?

[michael2009]

spc_hicks09 (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=1413160) thank you very much. Where would all us sleekbook ubuntu users be without you? Back using windows no doubt. You are flipping marvellous.

[udaraau]

Excellent guide ! Worked like a charm. The only slight difference was that in the config.mk i found HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT instead of HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT. Thanks a lot for this :)

[bEPmdPk]

Thank you. Your post was invaluable.

[shubhampokhriyal]

i tried these commands on backtrack 5 r3
i am facing few problems
sudo su does nothing and wifi is not turning on even after sudo modprobe rt3290sta(nothing shows up after this command)
and last sudo update-initramfs -u (this command says "cannot update because running on read-only")

[praseodym]

Which kernel is that?

Try this one:

The how-to in the first post perfectly works on HP Envy DV6-7350SL with RT3290 wifi, ubuntu 12.04

Thank you very, very much spc_hicks09 :) =D>

[a5du]

Hi,

wow - I am impressed! It "just" worked!

Thank you very much!

Lubuntu 12.04 on HP Pavilion TS11

[Joseph_Neri]

Thanks for this info. Like so many other people, I've been very frustrated by this issue and actually purchased a different laptop in order to circumvent the problem.

[branded7k]

Spc_Hicks09;

Thanks for this solution. Worked the first time as advertised! I was working on my Father-In-Law's HP Pavillion 15 N227nr laptop. I had to remove Winbloze 8.1 and install Ubuntu 12.04. I overcame the hurdles of the UEFI BIOS and removing the sub standard OS, but was having trouble getting the wireless interface up. Tried a couple of solutions to no avail, before coming across this one. Well done and nice job on the documentation. I've been retired now for 7 years from the IT profession where I had to support Microsoft in an enterprise environment for over 30 years. I've since converted many friends and family to Linux. Ubuntu has made my life SO much easier and allowed me more time to enjoy my retirement! Thanks again for the solution and professional job on the docs!!

Thanks spc_hicks09 ... :) ;)

Here is my problem with WiFi
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2283137&p=13306559#post13306559

So I did for about 2 years that workaround
http://rricketts.com/installing-ralink-rt3290-wireless-drivers-in-ubuntu-12-04/

Everytime my Ubuntu needs a restart (after updates) everytime I had to do that workaround.

No, I've tried what you write on the first page of this thread. So let's see if it's ok after other updates and restarts :)

I will let you know!

[Dan_Rau]

No!
It is happening again with the HP laptop!
I did some updates. It asked me for restart - and after restart the same thing -> WiFi not working
So I have to do that workaround again

[javed2]

I followed exactly as written in here, but after the make command, some errors showed up and the make install command did not work after that. As a a result, sudo modprobe rt3290sta gives a fatal error. Any help with it? If it comes to any help, I've taken a screenshot of the last portion of the messages I got in the terminal.

Hi spc_hicks09 (http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=1413160)
I've followed the same steps you disclosed in your posts. But I'm dealing with some error while make command. The errors are

And in file DPO_RT3290_LinuxSTA_V2600_20120508/os/linux/config.mk it doesn't have " HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y " this line.

It's getting frustrating please help me with this!!!!!

[goran7]

I was getting the same LINUX Error 2, so I found the solution here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1049466).


Here's what you do:

First, download the modified driver from here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1049466/+attachment/4275460/+files/rt3290sta-2.6.0.0.dkms.tar).

Then, right click on the file, choose 'open as administrator', and extract the archive in /usr/src

After that, open a terminal. If you don't have dkms installed, you need to install it:


sudo apt-get install dkms

Then run the following command:


sudo dkms install -m rt3290sta -v 2.6.0.0 --force

Reboot.


Update: It doesn't work anymore on 16.04. Neither do the other solutions posted here. Only the rt2800pci driver that comes with Ubuntu seems to work.

[sandipkc7]
